Young firefighter Dashiell Novak has run into burning bui ldings his whole career without a second thought. But the night he pulls mafia prince Lorenzo Diamante from a house fire, he doesn't just save a life—he paints a target on his own back. The Diamante family doesn't forget a debt. And Lorenzo Diamante, cold-eyed son of an empire built on blood and loyalty, has decided that debt is his to pay personally. When hitmen start circling Dash, Lorenzo offers him the one thing standing between Dash and a body bag: himself. Protection, full-time, no questions asked...as long as Dash moves in and plays along with the story Lorenzo needs the world to believe. They're dating. That's the cover. Living under Lorenzo's roof, sharing his space, his silences, his simmering intensity, Dash starts to wonder how much of it is actually pretend. And Lorenzo, who has never let himself want anything he couldn't control, finds that the one thing he can't seem to command is his own hunger for the man he's sworn to protect. While Dash and his crew at Station 27 chase a serial arsonist torching San Francisco one building at a time, Lorenzo hunts the man who murdered his father. The closer both investigations creep toward the truth, the more it looks like they're circling the same fire. Somebody wants Lorenzo's empire in ashes. Somebody wants Dash dead. And both Dash and Lorenzo want something they think they absolutely cannot have.
